While Clinton and Obama continue to top the charts, they're doing so with fewer votes than they have in previous years. Obama's votes dropped from 30 percent to 16 percent this year, and Clinton's decreased from 21 to 16 percent. Obama, as it's widely known, has had an "annus horribilis" (sounds dirty) what with the government literally shutting down and all.

As a White House press release Bustle received the other day put it:

"Hey everyone -- It's not exactly a secret that Washington hasn't worked as well as it should. Between the constant gridlock and partisanship, most people just tune this town out. That was especially true this year when the government literally shut down."

Clinton's decrease in overall popularity could be due to the fact that she's sort of stepped away from politics following the whole Benghazi mess last year: two months after the attack last year, Obama asked her to stay on, and she declined. Even though Clinton said she was quite happy to leave public office, some say that she's getting the bricks in place for an upcoming 2016 presidential run. But as of October, her approval rating had dropped 14 percent since leaving office.

So why the ratings drop now? Well, it’s not exactly clear: Since resigning, Clinton’s only made some speeches and done a New YorkMagazine cover story. It’s not exactly a botched healthcare-reform roll-out, for example.

The Queen, let it be known, has won 46 times. On a more conservative note, George W. Bush and the Pope each took eight percent of votes on the men's side, tying for second. Bill Clinton and the Rev. Billy Graham had two percent each, and Bill Gates and Eastwood received one percent each. Carter made the list likely because of his human rights work, especially regarding the conflict in Israel and Palestine. Ted Cruz also made the list for the first time. Sigh.

Then again, between one-quarter and one-third of respondents historically check the "don't care" box in the poll, so maybe that says something.
